Have you ever been to a city and instantly fell in love?.....with the vibe, the people, the feel of the city? That happened to me with two cities; San Diego California and Cap Haitian in Haiti.
I really enjoy your videos of cap haitien showing the world that Haiti is not all slums and there are beautiful parts where people live and go by their business in peace. I love how the streets are not so crowded like in port au prince. I love the little different colors taxi’s. I went to Labadee on a cruise, now your videos make me want to come visit the whole city. Great job 👏🏾👏🏾
My friend is currently in Haiti and here I am thinking that my country is in turmoil or so the world would have everyone believe it is still that maybe so theres many more places as beautiful as the ones you showed like in this video I got a hit of my country ASAP man you definitely motivated me more
Hey that’s where I’m from. You should go by my school, it’s on street 18 L(Frères de L’instruction Chretienne) you probably went there already in some other vids, but imma catch up with all ur vids tho, let’s goooooooooooooo… dope content btw
Hey, Dom sending lots of love and light, your videos are always dope! Yo, what kind of camera you using, since the people don't like the thought of being recorded? I think you're so smooth with 🤣🤣
Very good point by the way, before going to Haiti especially from Nort America it is worth to buy these expensive probiotics to build ur guts cause we are not used to this level of bacteria’s and I mean by that mostly handled food and street food plus the turnover in restaurant is not crazy high except for Cap Boulevard and you know the drill of a low turnover…. Deli belly the one and only!🔥🔥🔥💕🙏
Thank you for showing us the real Haiti. So many people from different walks of life were contributing money to Haiti but we needed to see the real life there. God bless you🙌🏽 Be safe.
Nice. I would like see more of the architecture. Haiti has some of the oldest structures still standing in the hemisphere despite earthquakes. We have to preserve them. Many are over 300 years old and the oldest church in the hemisphere was built in the 1500's, still active in Haiti. Petion's childhood home is still standing but needs preservationists to repair and maintain it. Historical Haiti Philly!
I like to see the locals opening their own shops and it's not a Chinese or a person from India...in most Caribbean Islands you don't see the locals having store/shop ownerships...it's always people from Asia owning the shops..
Majority of them get the uniforms tailored made and it’s a big business at the end of the summer before the school year. Parents who can’t afford new uniforms would either buy used or passed them down to the younger kids and sometimes recycle the same uniforms throughout a few grades. You passed by my old school on 14th and Blvd all the time. Great contents bro! lol
@@PhillyDom the question you ask about the monument in Cap about J.J.D., someone climb up there and broke by pushing it down and it was found that it was actually a duplicate the origenal that was up up there was taking/stolen/replace by a former president
My fiancé is from Cap Haïtien. He always tells me that Haiti is not like how it’s portrayed in the media. I told him that I’m NEVER going to Haiti 🤣🤣🤣 But this video has definitely eased some of my fears. Thank you
My suggestion you as a youtuber, is to interact with the local people you are meeting on the streets, specially, in the in local markets ! I can see many people selling the goods , I would approach them and at least try to identify the products they are selling! In addition, try to buy something from them, while you are travelling among them , and that would make them even more openly to exchange ideas with you , and you would learn more about the people , and other viewers would also learn more about the city, the people, culture, and theirs ways of life! I know you are not a journalist, but at least you can try to be!
@@PhillyDomthat's more of a reason to interact. Otherwise, you could've gotten into some problems just "zig-zaggin" through the streets without saying anything. At least a good morning, hello and learning how to say "I'm just a journalist/RUclipsr" or w.e. Its kinda why i dont stay long watching your videos. That's just not how you travel places my friend.
I remembered the school would give your parents pieces of the fabric for the pants and shirt and your parents took you to the tailor. He took your measurements and made your uniform. Than you ripped them while playing in school, got a beating, and repeated the process.
I guess if this is the only life you have ever known. Then they don't know what they are missing. But after living in the United States, all my life coming to live in Haiti like they are living would depress the hell out of me.
Yeah Philly you did it again. Making me want to come live there real talk..Damn you and Ace better go back Haiti next year .you all crushed it. St.thomas United States Virgin Islands in the house ...Richie (aka) RichKidzRock
Philly Dom, At 9:05 in the video, as you turn the corner, alongside the vehicle; the guy sitting on the chair, wearing the baseball cap, with the visor up, he must be an unknown kinfolk, of "50-Cent."
Yo, Philly Dom, I wasn't being sarcastic at all, but my perception about that guy, being a kinfolk to "50-Cent," (the entertainer from N.Y.C, ) is probable, (base on the forced migration of our ancestors from the many tribes from the Sub-Saharan region of Africa, to be sold to the european colonists, throughout the american continent. Actually, the majority of the population of Haiti; we are the direct descendants of our ancestors from the many tribes from the Sub-Saharan region of Africa, (such as, " the Alladas, the Ajas, the Ewes, the Fon people, the Fula people, the Hausas, the Igbos, the Yorubas, the Ashantis, the Asantes, the Bakas, the Sereres, the Wolofs," and, so many other tribes, who originally, forcibly brought onto the island of Hispaniola, (in the early 1500s,) to replace the decimated population of the indigenous Tainos people, there. Whereas, the year 1619, is referred as, the period of the beginning of slavery, in the "United States of America," when some private profiteers had brought 19 enslaved people, who, they have found on a damaged, and abandoned ship, in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, to "British Virginia," where, they then traded them, for their needed commodities. On the island of Hispaniola, (the present territories of the independent countries of the "Republic of Haiti," and, "The Dominican Republic." The enslaved people in Hispaniola, (from the Sub-Saharan region of Africa,) were already being kept in bondage, for more than a century, (beginning in the early 1500s,) by the "Spaniards." I was born in "Cap-Haitien," but my highest dna match, (at this time,) from Ancestry.com, is from a female second cousin, from the island of Jamaica, with whom, I share 246 cMs, on 16 dna segments. It was so fascinating, when I first received my dna results, from Ancestry.com. I was so doggone surprised to remark, how, my etnicity' s estimate is actually from 5 different regions in Africa, and 3 different regions from Europe. Philly Dom, subconsciously, people tend to recognize, what, they perceive to be true. Keep producing those great videos, in "Cap-Haitien," before you do ghost out there, as you have been telling us. "Hayti, to the World!"
They get the fabric and have the uniforms made bu a taylor or a seem-tress. School is important in haiti because every parent know that’s how his child will get out of poverty
Not completely true. There are both public and private schools. It happens that the private ones are sometimes better than public and far many more. Public schools suffer a lot from lack of funding and teachers go on strike often due to back pay. However, there is the FNE fund from Haitians living abroad that was introduced last decade by President Martelly that’s supposed to help the public school system. A lot of schools have been upgraded and news ones built through that. But we still need more of that.
La arquitectura de los edificios antiguos de cabo haitiano lucen interesantes, bonitos y llamativos pero las calles lucen sucias polvorientas, sin señales de tránsito, aceras muy estrechas falta de arbolado urbano e iluminación como que no veo postes de luz, de todas formas cap haitien luce mucho mejor que PAP pero Haiti es un país Tan peligroso e inseguro que actualmente no creo que ningún extranjero se arriesgue en ir ahí.
GREAT JOB WE COULD START A UNIFORM DRIVE FOR THE CHILDREN FROM K-12 WE CAN MAKE IT HAPPEN AND DONATE SHOES AS WELL AND undies sanitary items but you would definitely need an army to help you 4 distribution that these items don't get into the hands wrong hands , these items should be given out at the schools for sure God bless get back with me and will start the campaign drive for uniforms and other items for the children.💜
If you are reading this reply, you are also nosy. It's ok , all humans are. You just notice more at place you're not use too or where people are nore upfront about it. Lol
Hey Philip you replied (I LIKE THAT). I would like to see you get a bit more involved with the Haitians. As a Haitian American citizen I love what you are doing, you are more fortunate than I'm. You speak English/creole which is (OUTSTANDING). Learn about this (beautiful iland ) that is being portrayed in a bad light. Sorry for being so passionate I've been in Haiti. As a professional photographer it's beautiful.
I can't understand why no one says anything about all of these trashes you are showing right there in the middle of the city? Do they have a city Mayor, ? Does anyone cares about the appearance of where they live ? Why don't you try to question them about that ? People will be more interested to Haiti, if they can do some clean up !

Hi Dom, what are some good reasonable hotels out there on the Blvd?
IG@iam_phillydom let's talk
Thanks for sharing this, too bad we can't get it together 😢.
hey Philly Dom, as far as the school uniform goes, you buy the fabric and have the uniforms tailor-made
Thanks
Can you be a tourist guide for a visitor for a few days in Haiti. How much does it cost?
IG me @iam_phillydom
Es una ciudad con gente que camina y eso es muy bueno. Es excelente.
They look like they can walk straight into you
Wow, the streets are very narrow. Philly, do you know your way around?
YES
Yes the streets are narrow as this is the old french colonial part of town.
Recommendation always bring activated charcoal when you travel.
By the way, i love the videos is much clear.

I see a lot of riding for you not to show a gas station/truck just curious bro? And always safe travels
I will soon
Deberías enfocar la cámara a los edificios. Son muy hermosos y se ven antiguos. Incluso entrar y mostrar la distribución interior.
Haiti is very underrated!!
People sweep in front of their residences and businesses. Trash is accumulated because there's no sanitation pickup. That is government responsibility
The side walk is really narrow for the pedestrians
A nice housing stock everywhere in Cap-Haitien!
They get the fabric and have the uniforms made bu a taylor or a seem-tress. School is important in haiti because every parent know that’s how his child will get out of poverty
Okay so those sidewalks are really skinny like they look
Why there's so much trash all over the place?
Wheres the boom boom room
It is great city I don’t see a lot homeless like Cincinnati
Or NY, San Francisco and Boston imagine that. But the narrative associated with haiti is always the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere.🤦🏽♀️
@@nadiagay3519 it is though, it's not a lie
when are you leaving Haiti Dom and would you come back at all

No street lights or stop signs. How dangerous.
